Civitai
Civitai is the largest open community for Stable Diffusion, SDXL, Flux, and video AI models — hosting over a million model checkpoints, LoRAs, embeddings, and VAEs uploaded and rated by creators. Beyond hosting, Civitai operates a hosted AI image, video, audio, and language generation service through its Orchestration API, which races workflows across providers (Flux 1/2, SDXL, SD1, Z-Image, Qwen, Seedream, Grok, WAN 2.1-2.7, Kling, LTX2, Vidu, Veo 3, HunyuanVideo) and supports LoRA training jobs. The Site API exposes the public catalog plus user vault, permissions, and AIR identifier resolution. OAuth 2.0 with PKCE and per-app Buzz spend caps lets third parties build delegated experiences without owning a user's full credit balance. Generation is metered in Buzz, a virtual credit topped up via memberships or one-off packs.
Civitai publishes 12 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Blobs API, Creators API, Enums API, and 9 more. Tagged areas include Artificial Intelligence, Image Generation, Video Generation, Stable Diffusion, and SDXL.
The Civitai catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.
Civitai’s developer surface includes authentication, developer portal, documentation, getting-started guide, signup flow, support, engineering blog, and 46 more developer resources.

Kin Score
Markets this provider is in provisional
The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
| Market | Position | Depth | Registered MCP server | Declares compatibility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Agent Skills (SKILL.md packages) | standard | 17.2 (thin) | - | 1 |
Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.
Standards implemented 2
Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
